NOTES  ON  THE  BIRTH  OF  THE  LARK 

Bssto*  Herald.—  "The  pictures  and  rhymes  in  The  Lark  rank  with  the  most  remarkable  things  done 

for  children  since  the  days  of  Mother  Goose." 
Boston.  Budget.—"  Tfte  Lark  is  a  reaction  against  the  decadent  spirit.    It  is  blithe,  happy,  full  of  the 

joy  of  life  and  the  Greek  within  us  —  a  herald  of  the  dawn  of  the  new  century." 
Btslon  Commonwealth.  —  "Everything  in  The  Lark  is  clever  —  some,  we  may  be  permitted  to  add, 

cbverer  than  the  rest." 
New  York  Critic.  —  "  The  faddists  have  produced  some  extraordinary  things  in  the  way  of  literature, 

but  nothing  more  freakish  has  made  its  appearance  in  the  last  half-century  than  The  Lark.  " 
New  York  Tribune.  —  *'It  is  prehaps  one-fourth  a  monthly  periodical  and  three-fourths  an  escapade. 

The  Lark  ought  really  to  be  called  'The  Goose.'  " 
New  York  Herald.  —  "The  current  number  of  Tkt  Lark  is,  if  possible,  more  curious,  more  quaint, 

more  preposterously  humorous,  and  more  original  than  its  predecessors.     It  is  entirely  unlike  any 

other  publication." 
Richmond  Times.—'1  We  do  not  understand  upon  what  the  editor  of  The  Lark  bases  anticipation  of 

interest  and  consequent  demand." 
Philadelphia  Times.  —  "The  young  men  who  publish  The  Lark  have  ideas  of  their  own.     The  Lark  is 

smart  and  funny  in  a  way  quite  its  own,  and  it  is  also  capable  of  serious  flights  and  of  musical  notes 

clear  enough  to  be  heard  across  the  continent.  " 

Cincinnati  Commercial  Gat*//*.—  "The  worst  thing  about  it  being  that  it  is  all  too  brief." 
Jersey  City  Chronicle.  —  "  Every  line  in  it  is  well  worth  perusal." 
St.  Paul  Globe.  —  "The  Lark  partakes  of  the  prevalent  temper  of  life  on  the  Pacific  Coast,  where  the 

don't-care  mood  of  the  West  takes  an  especially  sunny  and  cheerful  turn,  and  life  looks  a  bigger 

joke  than  elsewhere  in  the  Union." 
St.  Lovis  Mirror.  —  "  The  Lark  continues  to  be  odd  and  ridiculous.     Its  humor  is  quite  unlike  any  other 

humor  ever  seen  in  this  country.     There  are  good  men  with  good  pens  working  on  The  Lark." 
Kansas  City  Star.  —  "The  Lark  seems  to  have  attained  a  distinction  hitherto  considered  impossible  in 

the  unconventional.     It  seems  really  original.     It  succeeds  in  holding  in  captivity  the  unexpected.  " 
Lfs  Angeles:  The  Land  of  Sunshine.  —  "  It  is  unlike  anything  nearer  to  hand  than  'Alice  in  Wonder 

land.'"

Remarkable 

truly,  is  Art! 
See — Elliptical 

Wheels  on  a  Cart! 
It  looks  very  fair 
In  the  Picture  up  there; 
But  imagine  the 
Ride  when  you  start!

A  Lark  in  the  Hand  gathers  no  Moss 


/  love  to  go  to  Lectures, 
And  make  the  Audience  stare, 


By  walking  'round  upon  their  heads, 
And  spoiling  People's  hair!

In  the  morning  yotfd  be  stuck  in  Tight!

The  Course  of  true  Love  is  the  Route  of  all  Evil 


My  Legs  are  so  Weary 
They  break  off  in  Bed, 


And  my  Caramel  Pillow 
It  sticks  to  my  Head.

It  seems  even  Smaller,

The  Milk  of  human  Kindness  never  did  run  smooth 


/  wish  that  my  Room  bad  a  Floor! 
I  don't  so  much  care  for  a  Door, 


But  this  crawling  around 
Without  touching  the  Ground 
Is  getting  to  be  quite  a  Bore!

The  Lark  Book  II.,Nos.  13 

with  Table  of  Contents  and  EPILARK;

Boston  Literary  Review.-—  "Its  ways  were  ways  of  pleasantness,  and  all  its  paths  were  peace.     It  had 
no  enemies  and  all  its  friends  were  true  ones.     We  see  it  go  with  a  real  regret  and  a

pej 

feeling  that  we 
could  have  better  spared  a  better  paper." —  CAROLYN  WELLS. 

New  York  Times. —  '•  Regret  moderately  deep  and  thoroughly  sincere  will  be  felt  all  over  the  country  at 
the  announcement  that  The  Lark  has  ceased  publication.  A  considerable  number  of  people  could 
see  no  humor  and  less  meaning  in  its  songs,  but. thousands  of  others  had  keener  eyes  and  ears,  and 
looked  and  listened  with  delight." 

Cincinnati  Commercial  Tribune. —  "  The  Lark  is  dead,  and  the  Epilark  has  come  and  gone,  leaving 
behind  them  only  a  haunting  echo  of  joyous  song  and  a  love  of  living  delicious  to  contemplate." 

St.  Paul  Daily  Globe.—  "  But  the  mood  in  which  we  turn  the  Japanese  pages  of  the  last  Lark  is 
anything  but  flippant.  It  is  something  to  have  known  youth  and  gayety,  enthusiasm  and  a  bravery 
which  flies  in  th«  face  of  day,  and  now  —  something  to  have  lost  them.  The  Lark  has  lived  and 
now  dies  well,  and,  to  some  at  least,  the  time  of  its  irregular  appearance  will  no  longer  be  a  red- 
lettsr  day." 

The  Philosopher. —  "And  now  The  Lark  announces  its  end.  It  was  the  freshest,  purest  breath  of  air 
that  ever  blew  across  the  atmosphere  of  letters." 

Boston  Times. —  "  So  unique  in  literature  and  illustration,  we  are  sorry  to  note  that  its  publication  is  to 
be  suspended.  The  bound  volumes  for  the  two  years  it  has  been  running  deserve  a  place  in  the 
libraries  of  all  lovers  of  the  odd  and  advanced  in  literature." 

Paragraphs. —  "  No  more  shall  its  cool  notes  delight  the  trer-tops,  and  no  longer  may  we  follow  in  the 
footsteps  of  Vivette  It  is  a  pity,  of  course;  but  what  can  you  expect?  Larks  must  be  fed,  and  — 
no  one  thinks  of  feeding  them. " 

Scranton  Tribune. —  "  Its  clever  foolery  shows  how  big  a  void  was  created  when  The  Lark  decided  to 
sing  no  more.  The  Lark  was  the  one  new  thing  in  junior  magazinedom  that  did  not  outlive  its 
welcome." 

St.  Louis  Mirror. — "  It  smacked  of  Robert  Louis  Stevenson.  It  was  ' Alice  in  Wonderland '  in  picture. 
It  was  art  through  a  crazy  looking-glass.  It  was  the  realism  of  nonsense.  The  whole  country 
laughed  at  the  strange  pictures  with  the  brilliantly  unintelligible  verses.  But  much  of  it  was  not 
understood  of  the  people  who  need  diagrams.  The  Lark  was  always  too  high  in  the  blue  for  the 
many;  but  for  those  who  might  mount  with  him  or  to  him  —  for  those  the  magazinelet  was 
published.  Those  enjoyed  it;  and  now  they  regret  it  —for  The  Lark  is  no  more.  It  was  so 
original  that  its  death  is  its  only  unoriginality." 


"  'The  Purple  Cow*  and  'The  Chewing-Gum  Man*  will  last  forever."—  The  Bill-Poster. 

"  The  Lark  has  for  its  distinction  that  it  introduced  'The  Purple  Cow  '  into  art." — yew  York  Critic. 

THE  PURPLE  COW:  A  collection  of  vagaries  from  The 
Lark,  by  Gelett  Burgess,  including  the  impossible  idylls  of  The 
Chewing-Gum  Man,  The  Runaway  Train,  and  The  Flying  House. 
Price,  50  cents.
